BENEFITS OF READING FICTION

The family saga chronicles the lives and doings of a family or a number of related or interconnected families. The typical novel follows the generations of a family through a period of time to portray particular historical events, changes of social circumstances, or the ebb and flow of fortunes from a multiple of perspectives.

Each Friday I’ll share a little on this genre (and sagas in general) & family history  (also, if anyone would like to share a piece of their own family saga, memoir or just plain old family memories let me know and we can work on posting it here).

And remember weekends are the perfect time to read family saga fiction!

Happy Friday,

A

    • As writers it’s probably a good thing we see our families that way. I’ve met people who hardly seem to notice or care that there is an underlying saga to their lives. They just get on with things. I don’t understand it. 🙂
